If I recall my Judaic-Christian mythology correctly: Lilith was part of the piller God raised when he was first creating humans. From this piller God sculpted the first man, Adam, and joined to him at the back the first women, Lilith. Thus Lilith was created as Adam’s equal.

So one day Lilith eats some fruit which had fallen on the ground (Tree of Knowledge). She begins actively learning things like hunting, crafting, and magic. One day Adam is horny and tries to rape her. She tells him to go screw himself and runs to God. God has fun with her for a while until her independent spirit assurts itself again, and God banishes her from “living” in Eden.

She says, “fine, I’m going to go make my own garden!” and does so, stealing fruit and seeds from Eden, including the fruits of Knowledge and Life. In the process she seduces Lucifer (guarding Eden at that time) and shows him it’s possible to think for himself. Lucifer Falls.

After Eve is made, Lilith sees her during one of her “visits” and tries to get her to take charge and stand up for herself. Eve eats the fruit, and gets Adam to do so too. This time all humans get banished from Eden entirely, and God retaliates against Lilith by destroying her garden. Depressed, she wanders and copulates with many monsters, giving birth to terrestrial demons (as opposed to hellish demons).

Yes, sure did. Another version in later jewish mythology (the kaballa to be exact) has Lilith as Adam’s original first wife. She rebelled against Adam because she objected to being underneath him during the sex act, rather than being raped. She then walked out on Adam and God sent 3 angels to bring her back. They later found her and she refused to go back. The leader of the angelic search party (possibly Archangel Michael) found her copulating with wild demons and other denizens and giving birth to hundreds of demon chldren each day! The angels struck a bargain with her, saying they would not drag her back t Adam if she allowed 100 of her children each day to be killed by the 3 angels, as punishment. She later evolved over time to become a violent nocturnal seducer of men, and the slayer of infants that were not protected from her by invocation of the names of the 3 angels on the wall of the household. Like I sais it’s another of many versions of the Lilith legend…..

i still think the comic is biblicaly epic, i cant wait to see how this all pans out, as for the storyis of lilith i ready that it wasnt offered for her to go back it was a deman she go back or 100 of her children would drown in the river Nile each day she did not return to Adam, and she said to the angels to f-off that she would not bow to that, and vowed never to return to Eden so long as he was there and it wasnt lesser demons she was copulating with, it was Malach HaMavet or death him self, and thats where the ideas of succubi and vampires stemed from, neither living nor dead because of their father.

GregYes, yes, and yes to your Big Three. And also Yes to foreskin, you can never have egnuoh. Vancouver is a delicious place, Victoria is sublime, but both will be quite pricey because of the 2010 Winter Olympics. And don’t forget to check about border requirements for your poochie before heading across. It’s probably in coming back that you will get more hassle from the Yank side. And I also agreewith Bastien (salut!) that a visit to Que9bec will be the most interesting part of any Canadian trip, especially this year of it’s 400th anniversary. And you will find lots more foreskin in Que9bec!Be well

To all those arguing about the biblical/hebrew/whatever Lilith story, I believe David has already stated taht the Lilith in his comic is the Mesopotamian Lilith who was actually the leader of the Lilitu.
